The co-directors behind the new documentary “American Reckoning”, produced by Frontline, Yoruba Richen and Brad Lichtenstein are the guests in the first segment. Their film is part of Frontline’s ‘Un(re)solved’ project. “American Reckoning” reveals an untold story of the civil rights movement and Black resistance. The feature-length documentary from Frontline and Retro Report, with support from Chasing the Dream, draws on rarely seen footage filmed by Ed Pincus and David Neuman more than 50 years ago in Natchez, Mississippi, and made available through the Amistad Research Center. In following the Jackson family’s search for answers, American Reckoning also taps into the groundbreaking reporting of journalist Stanley Nelson, who investigated allegations of the involvement of a Ku Klux Klan offshoot, known as the Silver Dollar Group.
